the carb rtr does not have a fuel filter iirc .im thinking of retrofiting one , will it create any problems in carb like restricted fuel flow to carb ? nox any ideas ?

i rode my friends Apache Refresh Version and yes i too think that vibes are less in hyper edge bike was cruising @ 65 aaram se no vibes , hope it stays like this
changed oil @ 500KM to TVS default oil , planning to change @ 1000km as engine heats up too much idling rpm will be at 2k ,is this a bad idea or should i change @ 2500km as per manual or is it simply waste of money ?site:xbhp.com keyword -> Google this to dig up stuff in xbhp fasterComment

Not only Carb RTRs but all petrol/diesel vehicles on the earth have fuel filter. It may not be there if you have installed aftermarket keylock to replace the fuel cock.Originally posted by Puneet1 View PostThere's lot to it other than saddle....

At 800kms, it turns in mineral water on heating (viscosoty wise
).
I would suggest not to wait till 1000kms also. Just switch to Semi synth like Power1, Sprinta, Superswift,ect...Last edited by nox2505; 12-09-2010, 05:13 PM.There's lot to it other than saddle....

Once you remove the cup, check at bottom of fuel cock assembly. Its white in color with offset hole for fuel intake in cup. There is a moulded boss at center to pull it out.Originally posted by Puneet1 View Post
Do take care of the cup O ring while removing the filter.There's lot to it other than saddle....

Ya got the news confirmed by an insider..!!Originally posted by onlinesatish View Post
My friend at TVS SVC tested the bike on the 7th of december at the HOSUR plant..!! He told me that it was too good & way better than the existing one..!! No skiding of the tyre,no matter how hard you brake..!! 
Its got an ECU with all wirings to the braking system..!! Its got a pressure regulating pump(which costs around 15k)..!!
Guess what,the bike is just around 5k costlier to the existing model(thats 85k on road)..!!
Finally, TVS is the 1st INDIAN company which provides ABS technology to the customers at the lower end..!!
